@Bob I don't use the iPad much. Mostly reserved for when I want to read in a reclining position in the house. I read and write, mostly, so I want a keyboard... and a screen that holds itself up. If I'm out, I travel light, and the iPhone is enough. If it's not, I want my laptop. I could imagine a lifestyle that I could be in where the iPad would have a better place, but for me now, it's not too useful.

The comments on posts 1 through 20 over this weekend are hereby restated as if they area part of this comment. BTW there is an althouse.com web domain available for sale online. You have to submit a bid. It presents itself as a one stop shop for Law and legal career advice.

I need to get away from northern New Jersey once in awhile to see prairies and rainbows, and the endless drama of the sky.

When I post on Althouse, I'm not at my best. I'm usually avoiding work that bores me. It's an escape. But escaping on the internet is like sex on the internet. I'm really interacting with an environment I create myself, rather than being a part of the larger world.

Weekends, yes - but not just weekends. Speaking for myself, there's a lack of red meat here compared to Instapundit. Hard to take shots at innocent artichokes, dating, much less the eternal lightness of notions.

I'd like to see serious subjects treated seriously, even on weekends. Because I don't have a "life"... except life itself.
